Learning curve continued...

It's hard to believe almost a month has flown by...again!!! Though, it has been a good month. We have all learned lots, and continue to learn. It's been a good thing! My son has been learning. We have been learning. He does honor us by his obedience, most of the time. He's been on a group date with K. He has invited her to church, and she came on Sunday. She heard the Message! Our pastor gives it loud and clear! She was warmly welcomed - proud of our church for that. My understanding is that she attends another church in town, just not real clear on her relationship to Christ. She is very sweet! In fact, she FB friended me!

What am I learning? I'm learning to be an encourager. Encouraging my son to read his Bible and seek God's will for his life. Encouraging my children to turn over their will to the Father's will. I'm learning to trust that we've raised our son right and that he will make good decisions. I'm learning to trust my Father with the most precious gifts I've ever been given, my children. It is a continual process of learning to trust for me, just when I think I've made progress I feel thrown back to the beginning line! I'm learning to be encouraged by the truths of Christ.

It looks like the winds have calmed a bit in these stormy waters; so we are able to see that learning curve a little more clearly. In seeing it more clearly it is easier to take it one step at a time, one prayer at a time, one word at a time.

Part of this learning curve for me has involved a former fiance of mine to come back into the picture. (Gotta love FB!) At my husband's suggestion I accepted a friend request from J.'s wife's FB page. Some correspondence brought some much needed closure for me (closure that I didn't realize I even needed ~ isn't God good?) It also brought me clearer vision. Lessons that were learned, that the Lord knew I needed in my life. Lessons that were taught when I was around my son's age. Excited to see how the Lord's going to work in my son's life, my life and the life of oru family.

Trusting HIM! He who knows what is best for me, even when I don't see it or realize it!
